Base Brisbane - Central in Brisbane, Australia

You should really open up you internet andmake it free. Attempts to make $15 a day off of backpackers only makes you appear as money grubbing and greedy. Especially when it is free at McDonalds right acrosse the street.

Hey Tim. Thanks for taking time to give us feedback. Unfortunately we can not determine the rates that the internet is set at. We use Global Gossip computers/internet so they are the guys who determine the rates. Free internet would be great though :) hope you enjoy the rest of your travels and thanks for staying with us here at Base George and the Base Crew

Pretty good if you want to have a good time, can be noisy if you're a light sleeper depending what floor your room is on. 2nd floor people hang out on the balcony, 1st floor might be close to the bar music downstairs, but it is a big place. Joshua, from USA ~ 3rd Nov 2009

The single person rooms are subjected to quite a lot of noise with them being on the roof. We were there on a Friday and Sat evening and all we would hear most the of the night was loud music from the pub downstairs and fights in the street. We got very little sleep. Perhaps some more noise insulation for those rooms. It was my first time at a hostel and for the price I couldn't really complain about anything else.

Hi Rick! Thanks heaps for taking the time to give us feedback about your stay with us here. Its a shame that you were kept awake from the noise from outside. Unfortunately we can not do too much due to the nature of the old building. We will endeavour to try and sound proof the rooms better! Hope you have an awesome time travelling! Base Brisbane Crew :-)

good hostel in the best location :) right infront of central station so it takes only 2min from airtrain. clean and good atmosphere but bit noisy coz of a bar under there. jinhee, from South Korea ~ 14th Sep 2009

Great location but dirty.

Hi Felix, Thank you for the email & offering your feedback. Staff & Cleanliness were an issue which is really disappointing. As with all areas of the property, your rooftop room & common area should be cleaned daily with the bathrooms cleaned at 7am & again at 2pm. We will follow-up with the houskeeper on that floor. Felix, thank you again for the feedback. This is certainly not the standard we aim for & will lift our game. We are in the process of refurbing the entire rooftop including rooms & we hope to welcome you back in the future. Travel Safe.....Base Brisbane Crew

My only problem with the hostel was the noise, it was just awful. I could hear thumping music past 4am. Not everyone in a hsotel wants to party. Someone should tell the British backpackers that.

Hi Stephanie, Thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. Great to hear that the stay went well except for the noise. We had another complaint about the noise during your stay & have addressed the issue with the bar as well as reminding all guests on check-in to keep noise levels down on the floors. If you ever experience this again, please contact the 24 hour reception desk in the foyer & they should deal with the noise immediatley. Thank you again for the feedback & choosing Base Brisbane. Hopefully we can welcome you back in the near future. Travel Safe.....Base Brisbane Crew
